Government changes rules on access to documents with 100-year secrecy

President Lula signed, this Tuesday (16), three decrees that deal with transparency and access to public information. Among them is the text that updates the regulation of the Law on Access to Information (LAI) (Decree nº 7.724/2012) and makes changes in relation to the 100-year secrecy provided for personal information relating to intimacy, private life, honor and the image.

The current decree determines that this information is restricted to legally authorized public agents and the person to whom it refers, regardless of secrecy classification, for a maximum period of 100 years from the date of its production. According to the CGU, the new decree maintains this understanding, but adds that this does not imply a restriction on the entire content of the document, if it is the subject of a public access request.
